Scale/non Scale Victories And Wish List



Recommended Posts

So, I am putting this here so I can ALWAYS come back to it. Plus I would like to know what others victories are, and what you want to do or DID as a result of weight loss. This may already be out there, but I couldn't find it. Below is just a few off the top of my head that I truly desire.

Here are my wants to do:

Hot air balloon

Ballroom dance class

Roller Coaster

Horseback riding

Hiking

Skydiving

Helicopter ride

Cruise

My scale victories I will celebrate:

299

250

Onederland ( 199 or less )

160 ( ultimate goal )

Maintain 160-170

And my non scale victories that will keep me going:

Size 18 Jeans

Size L shirt

Walk up house stairs NOT winded

Walk 1 mile

Walk 2 miles

Sit in a theater seat and have at least 1 inch space ( more is better )

Have a bah towel actually fit around me and COVER me

CROSS MY LEGS

There are more, so many more I am sure as there are so many restrictions on my life as of this day. I am sure once I see others I will go "Oh yeah...that too"!!

I'm short and I got to move the car seat closer to the clutch, making it easier to start the car.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
